Let’s see, theft of resources from the producers, transferred to the non-producers. What could possibly go wrong?
Yes indeed. My husband and I have been unemployed for a little over a year. We spent all of our savings trying to start a business and failed due to poor timing (buying had stopped at that time.) We lost everything. It all went into the economy.
Last month a venture capitalist we had contacted before, finally gave us a call. We were up and running in two days. Within 3 months, we will have paid more taxes than we took in unemployment. If it hadn’t have been for unemployment, we would have been in a homeless shelter, another home to add to the repo number, and still sucking soup in the line.
You idiots that think people should starve in this economy... hard-working people, such as this family, that if the truth were known probably paid more taxes in our lifetime than some of you “produced” disgust me. You are green with envy that some of us have suffered with the measly check we received once a week that just barely kept us afloat so that we could get back on our feet.
At least I have the satisfaction of knowing we made it... and many of you will be getting your just deserts someday.
